We Tested Everything: The Best (& our FAVORITE) Tennis Racquets, Shoes & Strings of 2025

What were the best tennis racquets, shoes, and strings of 2025—according to players who actually tested them? In this podcast episode, our playtest team sits down to break down the tennis gear that truly stood out after months of on-court testing.

With so many new racquets, shoes, and string setups released every year, it’s easy to waste money on gear that doesn’t match your game. This episode is designed to help competitive and passionate players cut through the noise and confidently choose equipment that delivers real performance—not just hype.

Our playtesters share honest opinions on what worked, what surprised us, and what didn’t live up to expectations. You’ll hear:

  • The best tennis racquets of 2025 for spin, control, and all-court play

  • The most comfortable and durable tennis shoes of 2025

  • The top tennis strings and setups our testers trusted in matches

  • Sleeper picks that flew under the radar

  • Which gear is worth upgrading to—and what you can skip

If you’re planning your next gear upgrade or just want expert insight before you buy, this episode gives you a clear plan to avoid costly mistakes and play with more confidence in 2026.

🎧 Get involved: Do you agree with our picks? What was your favorite tennis gear of 2025? Drop your thoughts, string setups, or questions in the comments—we’ll respond and may feature your take in a future episode.
